"How, how is this possible? I thought you died? Your mother?" J'onn asked and K'hym shook her head sadly.
"I'm sorry father, but she didn't make it." K'hym said.
"How did you two survive?" J'onn asked.
"I saved them." M'gann said as J'onn turned to face them.
"You were at the camp?" J'onn asked.
"Yes. I was actually the one charged with executing them, but I couldn't do it. So instead, I smuggled them out of the camp and into here. It took time for me to gain their trust, but since I have, I've been raising them." M'gann said and J'onn smiled at her gratefully.
"How did you survive?" T'ania asked.
"To this day, I still have no idea how I managed to escape the camps, but after I did, I managed to make my way to my ship and I escaped to earth. It was only with the help of my new friend Kara Zor-El that I was able to come back and face my past and also bring him here." J'onn said, referring to Malefic.
"Who is he?" M'yrnn asked, since this man looked familiar, especially after he shifted to a green martian form.
"You'll know in a minute father." J'onn said as he released his daughters and moved towards his father and placed his hand on his temple, restoring his memories of both the old world and more importantly, of Malefic.
"Malefic." M'yrnn said as he turned to his younger son.
"Father, I am so sorry." Malefic said as M'yrnn walked up to his son.
"Do not be sorry my son. I am the one who owes you an apology. I failed you. I should never have treated you the way I chose to. Your actions were the result of my own failure. Just as J'onn's were. He was simply trying to spare me the pain of my failure as your father." M'yrnn assured him.
"Malefic, meet your nieces." J'onn said and Malefic smiled as he walked up to his nieces.
"K'hym, T'ania, this is your uncle Malefic. My brother" J'onn said.
"You never told us you had a brother?" T'ania asked.
"It's a long story." J'onn said.
"One that you can tell back on Earth. We need to go before the less peaceful whites discover the location of four of their most wanted fugitives." Kara said and J'onn nodded.
"What about him?" T'ill'all asked of Malefic.
"I was an ally of the White martians, I know how they think. Perhaps I can be of use to the resistance." Malefic said.
"You're staying?" M'yrnn asked.
"I helped ignite the war in the first place. I need to make amends for that. Bring peace to our people." Malefic said.
"But before we go, M'gann, I need a sample of your blood." J'onn said.
"Why?" M'gann asked.
"Malefic told us about how the White's found a way to use their blood to turn green martians into white ones. Maybe the scientists on earth can find a way to reverse the process to turn white martians into green ones." Kara explained and M'gann nodded.
"Wait, we're leaving?" T'ania asked.
"It's not safe here and I have those that I've come to think of as family on earth that I want you to meet." J'onn said.
"He's right. With Malefic here, it's only a matter of time until the other whites realize that you are all here. Go, take the staff with you and get off this planet. Hopefully someday, we will be able to tell you that it is safe for you to return." M'gann said and K'hym and T'ania both nodded reluctantly.
"You'll love Earth." Kara assured them.
"We need to go. Malefic." M'yrnn said to his son.
"Yes father?" Malefic asked.
"I am proud of you, my son. The hardest thing a man can do is face the sins of his past. You have done that. Now you must take the next step. Correct them. I have every faith that you will do exactly that. You will not be pariah. You will be a hero." M'yrnn said and Malefic smiled as he hugged his father.
"I will try to be. I will make you proud." Malefic said.
"I know you will." M'yrnn said as he grabbed the staff and walked out of the cave, followed by Kara and the girls, leaving just J'onn behind.
"I will miss you both greatly." J'onn said and Malefic and M'gann both smiled.
"We will be okay J'onn. Hopefully, the next time you see us, we will be delivering word of our victory." M'gann said.
"If you ever need my help, do not hesitate to ask." J'onn said.
"We won't. Goodbye my brother." Malefic said as they hugged.
"Goodbye Mal. Take care of yourself." J'onn said as he turned to M'gann.
"Take care of my little brother." J'onn said to her.
"I will. See you soon J'onn." M'gann said with a smile as he walked out of the base.
